BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Sabres ended one long streak against the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday. It will be a whole other task when the Nashville Predators visit on Monday.

The Sabres (23-36-12) snapped a 12-game losing streak to the Blackhawks on Saturday with a 5-3 home victory. It was Buffalo's first win over the Blackhawks in nearly a decade, with Buffalo's last win over Chicago coming in December 2009.

Things will be a bit more difficult on Monday night against Nashville (47-14-10), who has won 13 of its last 14 games and hasn't lost in regulation since Feb. 17. The Predators are coming off a 4-2 win against Colorado on Friday and will look to end their three-game road trip with a perfect record on Monday.
